A misfiring engine will cause, low gas mileage, low power output, increased emissions and possible internal engine damage if left untreated. Typically an engine misfire under load, will be a problem with the ignition system, while low engine speed problems will be a vacuum, fuel management or compression issue.
Coral colonies grow through a form of asexual reproduction known as budding, in which polyps divide themselves to form new polyps . Corals can also reproduce sexually by spawning, which in Platygyra daedalea involves the release of gametes into the water, for external fertilisation. Platygyra daedalea is hermaphroditic, meaning that each polyp produces both eggs and sperm.
The zooxanthellae living in the soft tissue of a coral polyp use sunlight to produce food through photosynthesis and create a byproduct that the coral can use as food. Thus, zooxanthellae provide corals with food; in return, the coral provides the zooxanthellae with shelter and nutrients. Corals also capture food. At night, they stretch out their stinging tentacles and catch the microscopic organisms that float in the water and digest them in their stomachs. So, corals have two ways of getting foodâthrough zooxanthellae and capturing microscopic organisms.
